Product information
Precise Refrigerated Centrifugation for Research and Diagnostics
The refrigerated universal benchtop centrifuge Hermle Z 446 K is suitable for research laboratories, clinical diagnostics, and biotechnology that require reliable temperature control during sample processing. With a capacity of max. 4 x 750 ml, it enables the safe centrifugation of temperature-sensitive samples such as blood and cell cultures in laboratories with high sample throughput.
The laboratory centrifuge reaches a maximum speed of 16,000 rpm and a max. RCF of 26,331 x g. The temperature range from -20°C to 40°C is adjustable in 1°C increments. A maintenance-free induction drive, microprocessor control with LCD display, automatic rotor recognition with overspeed protection, and active imbalance detection ensure safe operation with a noise level < 65 dBA.
The Hermle Z 446 K combines precise cooling and high centrifugal force for demanding laboratory applications. Find out more about suitable cooling technology for your laboratory here. Inquire now and secure individual consultation!
